"Humid"
2001-10-11 until 2001-11-25
Australian Centre for Contemporary Art
South Yarra, VI, AU

Humid, part of the Melbourne Festival, is an international exhibition that explores the feminine sublime, featuring works by artists Tacita Dean, Kate Daw, Ann Hamilton, AK Dolven, Pipilotti Rist, Mariele Neudecker, Christine Borland, Clara Ursitti and Nina Saunders.

Humid - as an attitude rather than a weather condition - refers to the sometimes petulant, sultry, even sexy, feminine unconscious and its physical manifestations. Humid is hot, sweaty, oppressive, uncomfortable, but also languid, sensual and tropical. Humid is a state of mind, a state of being. Pleasure and danger, passion and petulance collide as Humid evokes the seductive and potentially destructive power of femininity.
